Docs perscribe meds and the pharmacy calls you and says..."BCBS won't cover Allegra so they 'RE-PRESCRIBED' you Claritin-it's over the counter. We've been on Claritin and it doesn't help, but don't you find it twisted that the insurance company can CHANGE your perscription to a completely other medication, because they don't like how expensive it is."

We're still fighting with them to get it and darn it, if we didn't find it online from canada for 30 bucks.
If BCBS oks it, we'd have to pay 160 dollars for it from Welgreens, and they just raised our deductable for RX to 2000 a year. We used to pay 30 bucks a RX.

We pay over 6 hundred a month for family insurance.
hey hey, i hear you, now the bad is next year januar the rules are changed here, we all get on basic insurrance same price for all( private or not) now i was thinking where is the catch, the goverment in holland earns alot of those insurrances, well its realy basic, so only doc or so but no hospital, there is the catch, because i have to take several extra insurances to get an good cover up and yep ofcourse all prices are different, realy i need to move to an other country....Stu<---- slap her hubby knock out and it moving to Mallorca
